Hi Natalie.. Thanks for the call. From memory the majority of the Waipu emmigration came from the Isle of Lewis, or thereabouts. However, I'll call these folk now I have your email address, and ask if they are on the net, and if they are interested in making contact re the Nova Scotia connection. Just a thought, there is in the village an active Geneology group who meet regularly, and their email address would be www.waipumuseum.org, and I'm sure that there would be an interest. One way or the other, we'll get something going for you...

Ross: Something else I would like to throw out here. I have Henry Magee's Loyalist claims papers....in it, he says he is from Enniskillen, Fermanaugh, Ireland. On his tombstone in Nova Scotia it says he was from Armagh. I do my research with BOTH areas in mind...but what would be your assessment? Perhaps he was born in Armagh but lived in Enniskillen and left from there on his journey to America. To date I have nothing that pinpoints the birth place or marriage place of Henry Magee and Nora Boyd. Any suggestions would be helpful.
